At least that is what I think.
Our weather was off and on cloudy yesterday, then around 4 p.m. got very hot. Hubby had a few errands that had him in and out and at one point he brought Lady in off the porch where she likes to...

Monday is our scheduled trash day. Obviously they do not do it on a holiday, so it went out this morning.
I am looking at somewhat overcast skies and it is not heating up too fast yet. That can change.
Today I have a dental...

This evening I put Bitty in the office while we ate. That is because no matter what is on the menu she wants to be in a lap and whine and beg for our food.
I gave her treats and shut her in. When I came back she wanted to stay...

I wake up early, even without an alarm.
Today I have worked inside, some, and I have mowed for two half hour sessions. That will be all the mowing I do today. Before I mow again I will replace the filter on my mower. I think it...

Okay, guys, there is still some access point for my cats to get out. Mind you, they do not use the same way in, but they are definitely going out.
Either that, or Bob or I are sleepwalking and letting them out, but I do not think...

Hopefully I do not make this too confusing.
My friend who lives in Hutchinson messaged me earlier this week. Her brother sometimes fills the pulpit in a church in my town. He was doing so today. She wanted me to come, as she was...

I do not feed my cats food at the table. I do not feed them except in the kitchen. Except if they are outside and come in I feed them by the door.

We had a storm front move through. The temperature dropped and that felt good.
I mowed a bit more. I just need to get to it. Hubby got the rider mower out, in the heat of the day, and then did not get around to any mowing. It is...

So far the break from school has been crazy. I am trying to get back in some kind of routine.
My daughter will visit at the end of the month.
Today I mowed a little while and will likely do so again. I shampooed the dining room...

Hubby woke up and came out and we visited for a little bit, then he went back to bed.
I had breakfast, and then I put a casserole in the oven...

She and her daughter live with her mother. She does not lack for anything, but the other day she said she was homesick.
She said she missed...

I was outside, preparing for some yard work. The weather was pleasant yesterday afternoon, then Bob called.

It is six in the morning, and we are having just a bit of coolness.

The cooler weather makes me...

The temperature dropped a little and a breeze picked up. I went outside about 8:30 to do some yard work.

When I stopped to pick up what Bob needed in El Dorado, on my way to Wichita, he called me.
They were wanting to put in a PICC line. He wanted me there when they did it. It is an indwelling port to give his medicine through. I...

It is not quite lunch time and we are hanging out in the office with air conditioning.
I am flea treating the rooms one by one. Bitty is not to go in the rooms I have done until it has dried, the bottle says. That is okay. If I...
